In some this has caused low self esteem. By knowing our history we will find that the original woman is the first ancestor of all humans and is indeed beautiful. Spoken Word Poet Kamal Imani wanted to add on to his infamous song "Ms. Melanin" by clarifying and elaborating more on the topic of the blessings of having dark skin. This isn't a song against any other person because of their hue. Kamal loves beauty in all colors and flavors. He just knows that the darker the sister, the worse the abuse in many cases.
